BethesdaProject Starfield debut w/ trailer, gameplay demo; takes up majority of the show. (Along the lines of Fallout 4 reveal.)Doom 2 debut, promises of more details later in the year, launch speculated to be Fall '19.Fallout Shelter 2 debut, trailed with release date set for autumn.Wolfenstein Mobile & The Elder Scrolls Mobile debut; similar to Fallout Shelter in concept, but very much their own games.

I can’t see any major hardware announcements being made this year, the only thing I can see happening would be Sony maybe announcing a revised version of the PS4Pro that can play 4K blu-rays.

I don’t think there will be any surprising games either, new trailers for the blockbusters we already know about, maybe a few sequel announcements.

My only prediction (based on nothing but hope) is that Sony will have seen what MS have done with backwards compatibility and have been working on it. They will announce that PS1 and PS2 games are coming to the PS Store and also that they have an emulator that will play most PS3 games.

Emulation of PS1/PS2 games would be fairly straight forward, obviously PS3's Cell architecture obviously makes emulation awkward, but there's no excuse for not being able to play games from the previous PS systems.

It's only the PS4 that Sony have been poor on BC; PS1 ran great on the PS2; PS1 and PS2 games ran 95% of the time very well on PS3...at launch (are there any working 60GB consoles left?). PS1 still plays nigh on flawlessly no matter what PS3 you have however.

The biggest difference with MS is that they're making old games look better for free if you already own the disc, whereas Sony (with third parties) would rather you purchase a remade version. There's no reason you'd want to play the PS3 versions of Uncharted or Shadow of the Colossus when the PS4 versions now exist, but you're at the mercy of Sony and others getting round to it (and being charged £25-£30 again for the privilege).
